V/LA shiny banners

[Kcdaspot]

whoa...

when v/la is on you can;t find them in activity overview?

[Kcdaspot]

disregard.

[Nobody Special]

Is anyone other than the poster able to set someone for V/LA?

[SleepyKrew]

You want to be able to set other people V/LA?

[Nobody Special]

Yes.

[SleepyKrew]

I hope you can see how wrong that is.
Some bastard might set you to V/LA until Dec 31 2012.

[Nobody Special]

I'm thinking that Mods should be able to set players in their games to V/LA if the players either don't know about it or aren't able to. It could also be the control freak in me coming out.

It's probably a Very Bad Idea.

[SleepyKrew]

If a player goes V/LA without announcing it, that's a flake, isn't it?
Or do you mean announce it but forget to change it in the UCP?
If the latter, I'd say inform Flay and make him do your work.

[Nobody Special]

There are a huge number of people who are not aware of the option of setting it yet.

[SleepyKrew]

I'd say inform Flay and make him do your work.

[Kison]

Not worth the effort in my opinion

[Nobody Special]

I can't help it you're not a Rabid Control Freak like me.

[Mr. Flay]

Maybe could add Game Mods the ability to do so for players in their games (say, someone announces it by PM and forgets to set it), but that'd be a ways down the line, if ever.

[Nobody Special]

Is it my imagination, or didn't we used to have Read/Unread icons in the PM box?

[Powerrox93]

Is it my imagination, or didn't we used to have Read/Unread icons in the PM box?

Yes we had, I noticed that as well yesterday

[Kison]

Fixed. Thanks!

[Mr. Flay]

V/LA will now last until the

end

of your end date (server time), instead of the beginning.

[Herodotus]

There are a huge number of people who are not aware of the option of setting it yet.

And there is a huge number of people who appear to have set it on for the maximum time who aren't V/LA.

[SleepyKrew]

People are still doing that?

[Mr. Flay]

There are a huge number of people who are not aware of the option of setting it yet.

And there is a huge number of people who appear to have set it on for the maximum time who aren't V/LA.

We can unset them if it becomes a huge problem. Where's your proof they're not V/LA?

[Herodotus]

I don't care that much. I've simply noticed plenty of posts coming from people who have the V/LA banner. I haven't checked on the "limited" access part.

Essentially I feel like the banner is meaningless; but that doesn't bother me because I intend to ignore it.

[Mr. Flay]

It'd be nice if there was a way to distinguish between 'limited' and 'no' access, but that's a later refinement, if ever.

[Max]

I'm not sure if the problem is specific to me or general but Help! always has unread posts. Then when I check the forum there are none. If I "mark forum read" it works until a new thread so it's *really* minor but I was intrigued if anyone else has it.

[Nobody Special]

I can't recall where, but it has been talked about before. At length. Flay knows where, I'm sure.
